Took some pics over the weekend. I'm a total noob when it comes to photography.
omg that interior is so cleanlove the shorty console.
^ Thanks. Still going to add a few items in the interior department.
Thanks for the new background

Recent pic.
wow! One of the best NB1 examples I've seen nice work!
looks great!! resemblance to the FD is even more apparent.
Got a very good deal on a set of OEM small side skirts. No longer like the bomex ones. They are too bulky in my opinion and stick out about half an inch from the cars body. Although the OEM ones won't hang down as low to match the front bomex bumper and maybe my Chargespeed rear skirt, I think it will look a lot cleaner. I plan on adding a set of GFuser side splitters to hopefully fix the mismatched body lines at the bottom.
My plans for 2013....
Takata Drift Harness II in black. With the rollbar relocation of the seatbelt, I'm running it through one of the shoulder harness holes since it can retract better there but it's less comfortable. Rubs close to my neck.
GFuser splitters from Project G to help tie in the rest of my low aero parts.
Replace busted front bumper with another bomex or if I'm lucky a used AutoExe front bumper from Japan. Will keep a close eye on yahoo japan auctions and upgarage.
Buy the JetStream NB aero front fenders. Will probably order this once I get my bonus check at the end of this year
Nakamae cluster hood wrapped in black leather or escaine(suede). Been wanting this for a while.
More engine dress up parts... Fancy garage star pulleys? CarbonMiata CF cam cover? Different valve cover powdercoat finish?
Performance wise maybe just a bigger brake kit.
Looking forward to 2013 !!!

I agree it'll look much cleaner with the new skirts. Autoexe bumper would be awesome too if you can find one.

Yep, the best looking front bumper for the NB in my opinion.
Earlier this spring I saw one on UpGarage for a NB2 go for $170!!! By the time I talked to a importer guy to look into it , it was gone the next day. Would of costed about $700 in the end to get it to my door but that's still a good price. I wouldn't of cared if my headlights wouldn't fit or left gaps.

Damn! Talk about a deal haha. That bumper is the only aftermarket bumper I'd ever get. It sounds sh*tty, but I kinda wish someone made a similar knockoff, just so it'd be easier to acquire.

Received a set of Takata Drift II harness in black with bolt on ends thanks to the gf for Christmas.
Installation was very easy. I used the stock mounting points for the lap belts and then wrapped the shoulder belts over the Blackbird GT3 rollbar which had a harness bar.
Question. How tight or loose are you supposed to have your harness? Currently I have it where I can only move about 2-3 inches forward. I'm a skinny guy so that's why it kinda looks there's no room to fit a body inside that harness setup in the above picture, lol.
Other updates include the removal of the airbag warning sign on the visors. It easily scrubs off with a combination of hot water and a dish scrubber. Use alcohol to clean up any paint residue smudges you might get from the scrubbing.
I also removed my rear stock sway bar. I was experiencing too much oversteer with my suspension, wheel/tire, alignment, and RB front sway bar setup. Car feels alot safer to drive now.
My NB small side skits have also been painted and ready to go in the car. I've been super busy with work so I might not be able to put those on anytime soon.
